    Fresh Coffee - Suggestions plz

    I've been using the tesco finest ranges of fresh coffee since I was donated a STARBUCKS sized coffee machine from my mum when I moved out and I've dabbled in a few bags of fresh coffee, but I want more. I want more fresh coffee to store in my freezer and I want more ranges as I am currently drinking mocha java and mocha sidmoa at home with the latter having a few fruity undertones and a much more satisfying taste.

    What I want is suggestions other than that "rocket fuel" for some coffees as I'm trying to convert a tea drinking mate of mine to the dark-side of the coca bean

    Blue Mountain has all the hype and the price tag to match.

    Personally I like a good italian blend - Lavazza do a great selection.

    If you ever go over to france , buy it there , its a lot cheaper.

    The pure Arabica ones look very light in colour but pack a powerfull taste. Robusta is less subtle

    Monsooned Malabar is really nice. Smooth and rich.
    Not around too often!

    Kopi Luwak is far and away the finest coffee. Has a rich heavy flavour like no other.

    I tend to buy german coffee for it's rich flavour - works best in a filter machine - but for espresso I get segafredo by the 5kg bag of beans from my local coffee shop... nice and rich and strong.

    heh I knew the chef would come up trumps I've just ordered the sample pack so if I start jibbering on MSN over christmas you know I've been sampling all the coffees one after another and on a caffiene fuelled frenzy
